"Kelly spent two quarters with our son when he was struggling with 5th grade math and helped him raise his grades from Cs and Ds to a solid B. What made t

hat even more impressive is that our son goes to a dual language school and most of the math lesson was in Spanish! Kelly has a great personality and relates well to both parents and kids. She was very accommodating and even picked our son up from school when we weren't able to. We highly recommend her."

Review by Brenda

"Janis first tutored our son in math. I was impressed with her admission to me that our son was smart enough to do the math on his own, but needed only mot

ivation. She allowed us to be the ones to decide if we wanted to spend the money on tutoring after having this knowledge. We did continue, and she was really great with him. His grade was raised before we knew it! We then found out she gave guitar lessons and hired her to teach my daughter. She was incredibly patient and made the lessons fun. Both my son and daughter developed a strong relationship with her. I highly recommend her to teach anything!"

"Andy is the Man! I needed a quick refresher course to cover everything up to Pre-Calculus in a short amount of time. If it wasn't for Andy's versatile mat

h skills and organizational skills there is no way I could have learned so much in such a limited amount of time. His patience allowed me to feel as if I wasn't under a huge amount of pressure and helped me feel a deeper sense of understanding in math.

I would definitely use Andy's services in the future if they are ever needed again!"

About Eduardo

Since my birth, my life was influenced by music and my father's passion to sing. My sense of music started not with understanding of lyrics, but of melodies and rhythms. As matter of fact, the first language I learned was music!! How is this possible?! Well, because of my hearing disability, I did not speak fluently and very well until I was in 9th Grade!! But with God's grace, I understood the language of music first!!
At the age of 10 months, I was hit with a deadly disease: Spinal Meningitis. But thank God, I survived. Because of the disease, I became legally deaf (profound-severed) in my left ear and hard-of-hearing (severed) in my right ear. I currently use a hearing-aide device on my right ear. Regardless of my hearing disability, I have the gift of playing music, understanding ...

Two years ago, I started taking American Sign Language lessons with Eddie. My sign communication was not smooth and fluent. Eddie took me under his wing and taught me so much.

I now sign at church, majoring in American Sign Language in college and just completed my first ASL class with an A from a tough professor. I wouldn't be where I am today if it wasn't for Eddie. He is the best and I highly recommend him!! He is an awesome teacher!!

Love my piano lessons with Eddie and look forward to them each week. I feel I'm a challenge but like to think that he won't believe the adage, "You can't teach an old dog new tricks!"

My son enjoys the piano lessons by Eduardo.

I enjoyed watching my son grow and improve week by week with Eduardo's piano lessons. He is very patient and good on picking up what style of teaching is the best for him. He is very encouraging and positive.

Eduardo's knowledge on the piano is great. He also has a great teaching style.

Learning the Ins and Outs of Guitar Playing

I must say that I am please with Jamie's technique and patience with me. Jamie is very knowledgable and shares some of his secrets (not shortcuts mind you) that help in learning to master the acoustic guitar. He leaves you with valuable lessons and exercises that can do nothing but improve on how you play the guitar. I'm looking forward to continuing my lessons with Jamie.

Charlie E. May 24, 2014 Verified Student

What a terrible experience. I signed up for lessons for my wife from Brett as a gift because he listed times that would work for my wife given that we have a young daughter, and have a hard time making time for lessons. Brett told us 3 days before the lesson that the time wouldn't work, then simply never showed for the rescheduled first lesson. Worse, he simply refused to do scheduling via email (he would leave voicemails and failed to return my wife's call when she called back as they were playing phone tag), and then told us he had another commitment during the slot we had supposedly reserved for him. Worse, he failed to update the site as he continually cancelled lessons and never showed up for scheduled times. I now have a huge hassle of getting a refund on the money I paid for lessons as opposed to a lovely gift for my wife. Life's too short and we're too busy for such an awful experience.

Fantastic for our 10-year old son...

Brett is fantastic with our 10-year old son who just enjoys playing piano and isn't looking to become a concert pianist someday. So many kids are miserable playing the same boring things over and over and Brett really listened to our needs and just nurtures our son's interest in music. Bravo!

I have years of experience teaching in elementary, middle and high schools so consequently, I have a lot of experience with various subjects and the methods used to properly teach them.

About Math

Mathematics is not everybody's strength. there are many subjects people can excel in and still find math a challenge, but where there is a challenge, there is a way to take advantage of it. Private math tutoring can help any student struggling with numbers and make the learning experience more rewarding.

What can math tutoring offer? If you're having trouble with math, a tutor can assist you with strategy development and new way of thinking in certain areas. Tutors can help with common arithmetic equations, reviewing addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Learn to apply mathematical problems to real-world applications, thereby making them more relevant. Tutors can teach you different strategies to use when completing complex operations.

One common misco

nception about tutoring is that it's only for students who aren't doing well in a certain subject. The truth is that tutoring can help develop skills even if you're already doing well in a particular subject. Working with TakeLessons offers the additional benefits of flexible scheduling and our 100% Money Back Guarantee.

Do you really need a tutor? Whether you're a high school student reviewing the basics or a college graduate in need of those final math requirements, a tutor can greatly assist you in setting and accomplishing your goals. Math tutoring can open a world of opportunity for any student eager to find the best route through math courses.
